Description: In Western blotting, it recognizes proteins in MW range of 265-400kDa, identified as different glycoforms of EMA. The alpha subunit has cell adhesive properties. It can act both as an adhesion and an anti-adhesion protein. EMA may provide a protective layer on epithelial cells against bacterial and enzyme attack. The beta subunit contains a C-terminal domain, which is involved in cell signaling, through phosphorylations and protein-protein interactions. In immunohistochemical assays, it superbly stains routine formalin/paraffin carcinoma tissues. Antibody to EMA is useful as a pan-epithelial marker for detecting early metastatic loci of carcinoma in bone marrow or liver.
Immunogen: Human milk fat globule membranes were used as the immunogen for this MUC1 antibody.
Storage: Store the MUC1 antibody cocktail at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
